Virtual Private Network Consortium

Welcome to the Virtual Private Network Consortium, better known as VPNC. VPNC is the international trade association for manufacturers in the VPN market.

Founded in 1999, the primary purposes of the VPNC are:

Promote the products of its members to the press and to potential customers
Increase interoperability between members to help them better serve their potential customers
Serve as the forum for the VPN manufacturers throughout the world
Help the press and potential customers understand VPN technologies and standards

It should be noted that VPNC does not create standards; instead, it strongly supports the current and future IETF standards.
